Haven’t produced anything at my agency for almost 2 years (low output from the agency all together). What do I tell people in interviews? 😓

This is really where you get creative. You are your client and when clients have problems we turn them around and have people look at the good.

For one, this is a test of your quality of excellence. You’re not throwing just any produced work into your book. I would also try to do some spec work or fluff that you had to take on freelance or something if asked why you stayed at such a place for so long.

Hi Guys,

I have completed my tech interview rounds with UBS and have received email for fitment round.

Can anyone share what happens in this fitment round on interview?
HRs have asked to submit documents even before this fitment round; which seems unusual. Is this normal for UBS and this is how they progress?

Thank you.

Again, this is not my student, but I think this speaks to the power of visibility. Students need to know we are members of society. All I did was wear my own trans pin and “love is love” pin on my lanyard, and my trans flag mask (occasionally).

But for that student it was enough.
